Saturday was a BEAUTIFUL day in upstate South Carolina so Mamma made us take a B-A-T-H!! Normally this would be a bad thing but it has been a long cold winter so we've put it off for a bit. It kinda felt good to be clean-ish.

Since Nikki belongs to Dogs for Autism, we get to use their grooming stuff at the dog kennel. AND there are horses at the kennel too!! There is about 10 acres and we can run and play off leash.

Daddy dries Nikki off with the "reverse vacuum thingie".

That's a funny look from Lucy. Spa day is supposed to be relaxing.

Let's get your chin, Lucy.

It's a dogs life...

At least someone is happy about spa day!

McIver keeps an eye on the horses.

What're you looking at?

Caution: Big Sheppies at play!

McIver is one beautiful boy!

We took the boys to the SC Botanical Gardens at Clemson University. They enjoyed the beautiful day with Mamma and Daddy.

Mamma has been sick so this post is LATE. Her pay will be docked accordingly.

Our dearest Lucy celebrated her 3rd Birfday this weekend. Lucy is a rescue so with the help of our veterinarian, we were able to determine that she was born sometime in February. Since she is a little lovebug, Mamma and Daddy decided to celebrate her birfday every year on VALENTINES DAY!!

This year they took Lucy all by herself on an outing. She went to the Petsmart to pick out a toy and to the Barkery to get everyone some treats for her pawty. Here are the pictures from her very special day!

I gots the truck ALL TO MYSELF!!!

Yummy birfday treats for the pack.

Some birfday scritches for Lucy's full birfday belly!﻿

It was a fun day for Lucy. She felt really special. Lucy is a really good sisfur and we all love her very much.

Hi all! For those of you in the blizzard, we hope you stay warm, cuddly and safe!

We thought we'd share some pictures from our mountain drive on Saturday. We had beautiful weather here. Initially, Mamma and Daddy wanted to hike BUT due to my bad knees, I don't like to hike very far. Mamma REALLY wanted me to go so we did a driving tour with some breaks. These are from the Cashiers-Highlands area of NC- about an hour and a half north of our house.

Calhoun is ready to go.

McIver is also ready.

Lucy's serious face and Nikki at the ready

Gassing up... hehehe... no really we were getting gas.

frozen mountains

Bridal Veil Falls

the water fall above Bridal Veil- Mamma forgot the name...

Daddy with his girl- Juicy Lucy is chunky!

Is everyone in?

What's next?

Lucy is tired.

McIver says, "Dude, I think I am gonna puke?"

No joke- poor McIver has had car sickness since he was a puppy. He has overcome it for the most part. Unfortunately Daddy's driving in the mountains was just too much. He threw up 3 times and every time, I tried to climb in the front seat. YUCK!!

Mamma Heartbeat here...We have ordered seatbelts for the boys but they haven't arrived yet.
